These are good initiatives, but I still think what prevents higher fertility rate is:
1. Job security 2. Property prices 3. Healthcare costs too high Pt 1 - who dares have more children if they feel their jobs are insecure or 'can be replaced by others' Pt 2 - If 20 yrs from now HDB flat costs 1 million, who dares to have more children as you may got to help pay your kids paid up their flats. Remeber, property prices increase faster than our pay increment. Pt 3 - If any kid needs to go through hospitalization, then who will help subsidize the health costs? Not forgetting you need to look after or pay your ageing parents healthcare costs too... |
